The Internal Security Organization (ISO) has successfully captured data on 2725 Parish Development Model (PDM) beneficiaries in Luuka District.
The development was confirmed by statistics acquired from the Zaidi App, an ISO-developed system for collecting PDM data.
Statistics showed that out of 6919, data on 2725 beneficiaries from Luka district had been captured in 7 days.
According to ISO officials, data capture will be rolled out across all villages in the country on June 10, 2024, with training Gombolola Intelligence Security Officers (GISOs) and acquiring data of all beneficiaries.
On June 5, 2024, ISO officials assured that by July 10, 2024, they would have captured data on the two batches of PDM funds that were released in FY 21/22 and FY 22/23.
“We shall keep capturing beneficiaries’ data with the continued release of PDM funds in Financial Year 23/24 and the years to follow,” the Internal Security Organization emphasized.
Officials from the security organization added that the data required is fulfilling the 6th pillar of PDM, the Parish-Based Management Information System (PDMIS).
This follows the launch of the data capture exercise for all PDM beneficiaries in all parishes across the country, which took place on May 28, 2024, with a training of the Gombolola Intelligence Security Officers (GISOs) at the Office of the RDC in Luuka District.
ZAIDI APP
The Zaidi App has been developed by ISO to enhance transparency and data collection, capture beneficiary information (PDM businesses and physical addresses), and create a reliable database for future government planning and monitoring of PDM projects.
